    Hi

    I have some Zinnia seedlings in my propagator that are about 3 inches tall but haven't done anything for about two weeks - no sign of the main leaves coming through.

    About the time they stopped, I stupidly misread what to do online and took the lid off and two of the seedlings died that day. I realise now the article meant to take the lid off when the first *proper* set of leaves come through, not the initial baby leaves. Hmm.

    Anyway, the seedlings that are left are strong, they just haven't grown and I've no idea what to do next!

    Any suggestions welcome.

    Cheers

    Just keep them warm and hope they kick back in.

    Hi peatfree, ive sown some zinnia, this year for the first time. Ive got some in my tiny plastic makeshift green house, and some out side in the ground, to see which do best. Those in the greenhouse sprouted in 3 days, so maybe it wont be to late to set some more off. Good luck! 02:D
